Torry Holt ready for emotional day

Jaguars notebook

Jaguars receiver Torry Holt doesn’t know whether he’ll laugh or cry Sunday when he gets a chance to play against his former team, the St. Louis Rams.

All he knows is he’ll “ride the wave with emotions.”

“I expect a lot of emotions,” said Holt, who spent 10 seasons with the Rams before joining the Jaguars in April. “Whether those emotions [are] a cry, or I get charged up and run through a brick wall, or will I fall down —I don’t know what it’ll be — but once we get between the lines, we’ve got to go out and try to win a ballgame. I’ll be all-in for that.”

Holt said part of him wanted to stay with the Rams and part “of me didn’t.”

“It probably was best that I moved on,” he said. “It was something that was needed at this point in my career.”

Del Rio’s record

In today’s NFL, coaches with win-loss records hovering around .500 don’t stay around very long.

Houston Texans owner Bob McNair recently said that great coaches don’t put up .500 records (Texans coach Gary Kubiak has a .452 winning percentage). But in the past, they have.

Del Rio (53-51) had a .521 winning percentage entering the season. Interestingly, his win-loss totals after six seasons compare favorably to some of the game’s best.
